Cleared American Guards

Cleared American Guards provide fixed-site security and access control for classified or controlled facilities. Responsibilities may include:

• Control access by personnel, vehicles, materials, and equipment.
  

• Conduct personnel, vehicle, bag, and property inspections in accordance with site procedures.
  

• Monitor CCTV, alarms, intrusion-detection systems, and other physical-security systems.
  

• Maintain post logs, access rosters, key-control records, shift-change briefs, and incident reports.
  

• Respond to security, fire, medical, and other emergencies and coordinate with appropriate emergency services.
  

• Protect classified facilities, information, property, and materials from unauthorized access, vandalism, sabotage, espionage, or other threats.
  

• Work rotating shifts, including nights, weekends, holidays, and overtime when required.
  

Construction Surveillance Technicians

Construction Surveillance Technicians protect classified facilities throughout construction and renovation. Responsibilities may include:

• Continuously monitor construction workers, including foreign-national personnel, on secure construction sites.
  

• Prevent the introduction of clandestine electronic, electrical, mechanical, or other surveillance devices.
  

• Inspect construction materials, tools, equipment, furnishings, vehicles, and work areas for tampering or unauthorized modification.
